First, a podcast. Do you find yourself with a memory that you just can't erase? An anger that simmers, under the surface, no matter how hard you try to forgive? A grief that lingers?

How do we get over such big things in our lives?

Too often I fear that in searching for healing we put the emphasis on the wrong thing. We think about the problem. Perhaps that's why we're stuck in it! In this quick podcast I challenge us to look at things in a different way. Maybe it's not about dealing with your problem as much as it is running to the Healer.

And remember, my book, How Big Is Your Umbrella?, deals with this in a lot more depth. It's easy to understand, and perfect when you're going through a hard time!

Next, I've got an oldie but a goodie up at Heart of the Matter today! When do you feel grown up? For me, it was when I started to be able to emerge from some of these hurts I had suffered and realize that they didn't have to define me. And there's a bunch of other funny stuff in there, too!

About Me: I'm a Christian author of a bunch of books, and a frequent speaker to women's groups and marriage conferences. Best of all, I love homeschooling my daughters, Rebecca and Katie. And I love to knit. Preferably simultaneously.
